Barriers to effective communication

DJE. McFarland defined communication as the meaningful interaction of mankind. Specifically, this is the process by which the reports can be interpreted and understandable among people. But there may be bugs / obstacles in the communication system that prevent the message from reaching the receiver, these constraints are: –

1. Language barrier; – Different languages, vocabulary, accent, dialect mean national / regional obstacles. Semantic gaps are words that have similar pronunciation, but multiple reports are similar; badly expressed messages, bad interpretations, and unconditional assumptions. The use of difficult or inappropriate words / misunderstood or misunderstood messages may cause confusion

3rd Individual barrier: – It may result in an individual's perception and personal discomfort. Even if two people have experienced the same incident, their mental perception may not be the same, which acts as an obstacle. Style, selective perception, halo effect, poor attention and retention, defensiveness, wit, and inadequate screening are individual or psychological obstacles. Organizational barrier: – The poor organization's culture, climate, strict rules, regulations, status, relationships, complexity, inappropriate means / opportunities for growth and development; whereas; the nature of the inner and outer environment, such as large work areas physically separated from others, poor lighting, lack of employees, obsolete equipment, and background noise are the physical organizational barriers

. Interpersonal barrier: – The barriers to employers are: – the mistrust of workers; Lack of knowledge of non-verbal signs such as facial expression, body language, gestures, posture, eye contact; different experiences; lack of employees; can not be taken into account for employee needs; they want to take the authority; fear of controllers; bypassing and informal overload while obstructions from employees include lack of motivation, lack of cooperation, trust, fear of punishment, and poor relationships with the employer

. Attitudinal obstacle: This is due to problems with the organization's staff. Physical and mental abilities, intelligence, understanding, preconceived concepts, and limitation of untrustworthy sources divide attention and create a mechanical barrier that affects attitudes and beliefs

. Channel barrier: – If the length of communication is longer or the selected media is incorrect, the communication may break up; this may be the result of interpersonal conflicts between the sender and the buyer; lack of communication; information exchange or access problems that may interfere with the channel and affect clarity, accuracy, and efficiency.

Effective communication is needed to overcome these constraints. Breaking the barrier is a wide-ranging activity, and there are some measures here.
